At the time, fans of Real Housewives of Atlanta were wondering why Leon, an ex-boyfriend of Cynthia Bailey, was sitting in Coco Gauff’s U.S. Open box.

In 2024, the actor sent a happy birthday message to Coco on Instagram in March, with her replying “thank youuu!! happy belated birthday to you as well!” Leon also posted a supportive message of the tennis star being supported by her father, Corey Gauff, and congratulated her on becoming a flagbearer for Team USA at the 2024 Paris Olympics alongside LeBron James.

The actor is also a sports fan and a casual tennis player himself, posting that he is a doubles partner with his daughter, Noelle Robinson.

Leon is best known for his roles as Little Richard in the self-titled 2000 NBC movie, Derice Bannock in Cool Runnings, and a recurring role as Alonzo in Season 6 of The Chi.
